What’s the meaning of ORGANIC?

Any food packaging that sports the USDA organic label was grown or made with ingredients with no pesticide and herbicide inputs - chemicals that may have a detrimental impact on human health, such as lowering immunity. In order to be labeled organic, at least 95 percent of the ingredients in the food much have been organically produced. Livestock raised organically must be fed organic feed and can’t be administered antibiotics or growth hormones. Genetically modified food is not permitted under the organic umbrella.
